Air Conditioning Re-Gas

[NightShadow]

A heads-up for anybody that is needing their Air Con re-gassed. My local Kwik Fit eek are doing it for £25 currently! I'm assuming this is nationwide thing so could be a good time to get it done!

Yeah they do it every year I think, well worth it

Cheers! Was waiting for this offer. I think mine needs a top-up.

I think I'd rather take my car to the local Zoo so a real Monkey can do it.

It's pretty hard to get wrong. you plug the machine in and turn it on!

As far as I know they charge £25 for the gas then there is lots of little extras which bump it up, like compessor oil, leak check etc.

Thanks for the heads-up

This offer certainly isn't mentioned on their web-site but I'll call my local Kwik-Fit today and see if they are offering it. If you have A/C, it might at least work well!

Incidentally, on the Kwik-Fit web-site, they have a warning that "if the ambient temperature around the car is less than 9 degrees Celsius it may affect the results of the AirCon recharge test results" - I can't quite see then why they would make this offer in January

its £25 including all that, had mine done, all is well. pluged up machince, it does everything then gives a printout to prove what has been done. oil, gas, leaktest etc

Got mine done at Kwik Fit last summer and the air went warm again within a couple of days of it being done. So I got BMW to do it and it's still cool now

The branch also refused to give me a refund, had to write to the head office.

Did BMW give any explanation as to what exactly Kwik-Fit had done wrong and how much did BMW charge you to rectify Kwik-Fit's failure?

Don't like Kwack-fit. Mate used to work for them and things he used to say what happens there! I would never go there!
